Synopsis
Helen had just murdered her mother, and in the hours that follow, as she awaits her fate, she thinks back on the painful wreck of her life: her abusive childhood, her failed marriage, and her inability to break free from her mentally disturbed mother. THE LOVELY BONES, Sebold's breakout bestseller, was certainly dark--its child narrator told her story from the grave--but THE ALMOST MOON is pitch black. There's little or no hope for Helen, but Sebold's unflinching prose forces the reader to empathize with the novel's damaged protagonist.

Industry Reviews
"Unremittingly bleak...[and written with] such honesty and empathy that many will find their own dark impulses reflected here."

    Sebold's new book, "The Almost Moon," is very dark. The story is about Helen Knightly who steps over the line into the unthinkable....murder! For many years Helen has given of herself. Her life spent with a mother who suffered a variety of demons, her secretive father, her two daughter and ex-husband. The story unfolds in a 24 hour period when late one afternoon her life presses in on her in a way she never imagined. This book explores the provocative ties between mothers and daughters, wives and lovers, and the meaning of love and hate.
    A gripping story....deeper than her last "The Lovely Bones." Devastating details and insight into Helen.
